I love disney land paris. Walt disney said that when in his park he doesnt want you to see the outside world and i feel that is so true! While at disney it is like all your problems melt away!

The rides on Brighton pier may be old school, but the thrill of swinging your legs out over the sea whilst being totally windswept complete the whole experience. Best on a sunny, cold winter day with the sound of screams, wind, seagulls and smell of sea, chips & candyfloss for accompaniment.

my favourite theme park at the moment has to be alton towers, the rides and attractions are absolutely amazing, no wonder everyone wants to go there. my favourite ride at alton towers has to be nemesis or oblivion. the most thrilling rides there but hopefully the next best ride will be nemesis sub-terra 🙂
